Returning to Sports and School After COVID (BSAAC Mental Health Week Special)

Hi all,

Here’s episode 2 of my 3-part series with the Bowdoin Student-Athlete Advisory Committee as part of the NESCAC’s 2022 Mental Health Week. Today’s theme is Mental Health during times of uncertainty. Given the events of the last two years, I wanted to focus on this in the framing of COVID and its impact on the College lifestyle.

To discuss the student athlete experience through this time while also being able to explain the college’s decisions, I invited our Athletic Director, Tim Ryan into the studio. We talked about everything from the college’s COVID response to his own vision for how discussions of mental health can strengthen both our athletic and overall student experience here at Bowdoin. By this campus pulling together, we can leave this time behind us and focus on the possibilities for growth moving forward.

A huge thank you to the BSAAC for involving me in the discussions of this week, be sure to check out all of the great programming they have put together.

Enjoy!
